Thumbs up I'm in Katy

I am looking forward to a trip to Houston Raceway Park in Baytown. It was $15 for all of the 1/4 mile runs you want to make. Gates open at 5:00pm on Friday nights.

Anyone else in?

We could plan a G8 night in a few weeks...

Cypress/Tomball here.

The group out on HoustonPerformanceDriving.com will be in Sealy next weekend for a huge event - Judgement Day - bring it out there.

I know lots of people would love to see it, and see it run.

Sealy is closer to you than Baytown is.

We all need to plan a big G8 meet this fall for Texas. Maybe even have it at Texas Motorplex or Houston Raceway park. That way we can have 2 kinds of fun.

Hell yeah!

Sign me up. Do we have to already have bought our G8s to attend? I haven't been to any sort of meet in forever. I'd drive for a bit of fun. =]

No G8 needed you can just come with any car. But when you leave you will want a G8 even more.

It looks like this thread's been inactive for a while, but I'm down in the Clear Lake / League City area with a magnetic gray GT. (There's a few pics of it up in the photo thread.)

I saw two G8s this past week and was wondering if it was anyone here. The first was a black GT, the second was white and in my rear view.

Do you go to the Kemah car show? I have a red G8 that is highly modded and have met 2 G8s there so far.

If you're talking about the Saturday evening show near the Home Depot and Target, I haven't made it out there yet with the G8 - there's been too much good college football on lately.
